Cegłów [ˈt͡sɛɡwuf] is a town in Mińsk County, Masovian Voivodeship, in east-central Poland. It is the seat of the gmina (administrative district) called Gmina Cegłów.[1] It lies approximately 13 kilometres (8 mi) east of Mińsk Mazowiecki and 51 km (32 mi) east of Warsaw.
The town has a population of 2,109.
History
[edit]Cegłów was granted town rights in 1621 by Polish King Sigismund III Vasa.
In the early 20th century, a Mariavite parish was established in Cegłów, the second after Płock.
Following the joint German-Soviet invasion of Poland, which started World War II in September 1939, Cegłów was occupied by Germany. In December 1939, some expelled Poles from Ostrzeszów were deported to Cegłów.[2] Local Polish railwaymen gave shelter to many Jews who escaped from transports to the Treblinka extermination camp.[3] Polish railwaymen and Jewish escapees jointly carried out acts of sabotage on the Mińsk Mazowiecki-Mrozy railroad, attacking German trains.[3] On June 28, 1943, the German gendarmerie, SS and Gestapo cracked down on the resistance and murdered 26 Poles, including women and children, and an unknown number of Jewish escapees.[4]
Transport
[edit]There is a train station in Cegłów, and the Polish A2 motorway runs nearby, north of the town.
